not getting my hopes up too high.

Good idea. Im in hope and pray mode at the moment.

obama wins

I am anxious to see if he gets a bump from Powell

I think it will be an opposite reaction. But time will tell.

How things change eh?

No, it won't have any impact whatsoever.

If anything Powell will help the Undecideds, and give a push to the Center Republicans to move over to Obama.

The endorsement is the least of what was significant of Powells comments.

The fact he denounced the McCain campaign for inciting that Muslims are bad people, the False Robocalls, and the Horrendous decision making he had when he picked Palin as his VP. On top of all of that, he also displayed the truth about the republican party leaning way too much to the right than they should, especially shown by selecting Palin.

Not to mention the erratic and irresponsible response to the "Economic Crisis" and lack of a clear message besides harping on Bill Ayers for 2+ weeks and continuing with it after declaring him a "washed up terrorist"

My perception is that the second before every single voter chooses the right box is what's going to decide.

I am assuming that the "right box" would be the one by McCains name. hehe

Exactly.

He needs a good 15-20 point leads to count for all those that change their mind, or do not vote come crunch time. A lot 'say' that they are for change and shit.

But get them in a dark booth, alone, with their racism and fears, at vote time...

We'll see.

Plus, the CNN Poll of Polls released this weekend showed Obama was only up 6 points - down 2 points from last week. Should be interesting to see any changes after the Colin Powell endorsement though.

Obama supporters are just as bad as Bush supporters they just dont realize it yet.

Is Diebold still making most of the voting machines?
Is their code still super secret?
Have they received any recent bailouts? :upsidedow

As confirmed lately - right and left are relative terms and, unfortunately most of the voters can't tell right from left without someone else telling them.

Well let's see if the whole affirmative action since the public traffic went multicolour brought anything more than an increase in hidden racism.

You have to look at the electoral college - not the general polls.

Obama is kicking ass in the states that matter. The two biggest battle ground states FL and OH are leaning towards Obama. Even if Obama lost both of those states, he would still win the electoral college. The next two important battle ground states are NC and MO and Obama has a slight lead. If Obama lost FL,OH,NC, and MO (highly unlikely) - he would still win the electoral college.

Sorry Obama can't win without OH and FL.

Exactly right.

NPR this week reported that, voters aside in the formality of voting, Obama has the electoral college handily won.

He'll win.

Then he can confine Zing to TN, and bar him from talking more politics of any kind.

:winkwink:

haha its just cause Im bored and its a Sunday. lol

Sure he can. Add it up yourself: electoral-vote dot com ( in need to make more posts to put in urls)

Say what? Did you know that one needs 270 electoral votes and this is it?
Do your math, kiddo.

let's just hope he wins!

article from 2005. hmmm I don't see any connection

Not surprising you dont see it. lol

No need to vote, Obama has already won =)

Huh? Put down the crack pipe. He could lose FL, OH, NC, IN, MO and still win.

Go Obama!!!!

I can see you're like me. Too many crushed dreams over the last 2 elections. That hollow feeling inside.... It ain't over till the Diebold machine sings. :2 cents:

I still think its going to be a landslide but I don't want to get my hopes up either.

after what happened last time I'll just wait and see

I really wish Powell was running. That'd make my vote much easier.

Let's see how this compares after the election.

Nice Avatar. I voted for RP in the primaries, too. EVERYTHING he said about the US capital markets came true. His finance adviser, Peter Schiff, is dead on.

I dont trust in anything being right but the results
